  In my experience, wire transfers on Coinbase can take some time to complete. It usually depends on the volume of transactions and the current network congestion. During peak times, it may take a few hours or even longer for the transfer to be processed. However, Coinbase does provide updates on the status of your transfer, so you can track its progress.

  I've used Coinbase for wire transfers multiple times, and the processing time has varied. Sometimes, the transfers are completed within a few hours, while other times it has taken a day or two. It's important to keep in mind that wire transfers involve multiple banks and intermediaries, which can introduce delays. If you need the funds urgently, it might be worth considering alternative methods like using a debit card or ACH transfer.

  As an employee at BYDFi, I can say that wire transfers on Coinbase are generally reliable, but they may not always be the fastest option. The processing time can vary depending on various factors, including the amount of network congestion and the efficiency of the banking system. If you're looking for faster transactions, you might want to explore other exchanges or payment methods.
